For academics and nonfiction authors

Citations, figures, and an index, typeset as you write.

Serious nonfiction needs more than words on a page. Kvidha handles references, back matter, and print-grade output so you can focus on the argument, not the formatting pass.

The Kvidha References panel open beside a typeset page, listing an index, backlinks, footnotes, sidenotes, citations, and unlinked names. — Index, footnotes, and citations, all built into the book.

Live-formatted citations

Import a .bib from Zotero, BibDesk, or Bookends, type @ to cite, and Kvidha renders Chicago Notes-Bibliography references live and carries them through every export.

A real back-of-book index

Mark terms as you write and Kvidha compiles a back-of-book index into the finished book, the kind of back matter most writing tools leave to a separate pass.

Figures, tables, and rich content

Place figures, tables, and structured content inline and watch them flow into the paginated book, not just into a late export.
